Linux T3 Driver
 
  T3 Project Description

The SUN StorEdge T3 enterprise storage units are supported on Linux with a multipath device driver developed by Linuxcare. The driver is a high availability implementation supporting the T3's fail-over capabilities. It runs on the 2.2.x series kernels (starting at 2.2.15), fully supports SMP, and includes command-line diagnostic tools. It is released under the GNU GPL.
